What his Bookmarklet can be modified to do is:<br />Recurse through the NYtimes main page and change each link to point to that first link the Google throws up - some prep time as per my experiment - but it works - I am failing to perfect it though! Only ONE control+click, as you are changing the DOM for the main page.Sri1https://www.blogger.com/profile/12736173092365282142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6198139158251493178.post-25217991151703033492013-11-06T14:43:50.497-08:002013-11-06T14:43:50.497-08:00Try this

I currently have a web proxy written which automatically does the following:<br /><br />Grabs the specific nytimes link of the page that you're on, pulls out the name of the article in the url, searches for that in google, scans the html, pulls out the link of the first result, and then redirects to that (which is itself a google embedded-redirect link). ...but that doesn't work, because when you redirect to a link which redirects, you get a message thrown to the user asking for his/her approval in automatically redirecting.<br /><br />So back to square one for me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05087507482990826643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6198139158251493178.post-90421524531271357782013-08-14T08:26:06.012-07:002013-08-14T08:26:06.012-07:00Hi Matt,

I've put together my own soltuion for the issue. It's not as elegant as yours or NYClean in that it requires the user to make 2 clicks! <br /><br />However it does have the fact that it still works to recommend it. Check out my <br /><a href="http://codeaddict.tumblr.com/post/58158944797/2-click-solution-to-ny-times-paywall" rel="nofollow">2 click solution to the NY Times paywall</a> on <a href="http://codeaddict.tumblr.com/" rel="nofollow">my blog.</a><br /><br /><br />If you have any great ideas about how to make it a one click solution I'd love to see it. I'm not proud of my hack, I'm just looking for a better solution. <br /><br />best,<br />--mattMatt Johnsonhttp://codeaddict.tumblr.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6198139158251493178.post-17170563985314702122013-07-24T09:45:24.050-07:002013-07-24T09:45:24.050-07:00A combination of blocking their gwy.js file (I use...A combination of blocking their gwy.js file (I use Adblock) and repeated cookie accepting and then deleting (followed by a page refresh) still seems to work, but it's a pain.<br /><br />If the cookie flushing part were automated it would be a lot easier. Perhaps you can work that in? (I guess it would have to become browser specific at that point.) As it stands their plan is working to keep me from recommending or linking to any NYT content.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6198139158251493178.post-385739887976675502013-07-21T14:36:42.037-07:002013-07-21T14:36:42.037-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.ARhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573131206680541257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6198139158251493178.post-36158069132899094042013-07-11T11:39:17.832-07:002013-07-11T11:39:17.832-07:00Regardless, this is some impressive coding.
